I am starting a new log as I think I am entering a new stage and want to keep this portion seperate from my original results. So much has changed. My old log can be found here -> http://boards.elitefitness.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=222075

My weight loss has slowed to a crawl.

I have been dieting for about 4 months solid now. I want to start bulking July 1st but I know I am around 20 to 25% Body Fat.

If my math is correct, I should be right around 15% if I lose another 20 pounds. That is what I really need to do... I am tired of dieting and I am ready to start growing again!!!!!!!

I am currently at 1900 cals per day with 40p/25c/35f split. I track on Fitday, so I am more of less in control of my intake. I am currently taking VPX Clenbutrx. I lift 5 days a week (M-F) using needsize's 5x5 plan. I dropped cardio as I think I was dipping too far into my daily cals.

Suggestions?
 
congrats

Lodid:
I do not have a suggestions, but would like to congratulate you on your accomplishments. I am starting the program now and your "old" log will help me a lot. I have been trying to put things together in order to meet the fat intake requirements (Man they are high) I do not have it down yet but soon I will. I have gained about 20punds of fat since January due to quitting smoking. Now, I have been working out and just started cardio in the morning.

Congrats, again. :D
 
Quitting smoking sucks, I remember it well.

Ranch Dressing helped me quite a bit with the fat intake. You can put it on almost anything and its great! Lot's of fat.

I would save the cardio for later. CKD's are kinda rough with morning energy, I'd wait until you adjust to the diet, then hit it.

High School Reunion weekend. Going to try and keep the booze to a minimum.
 
how long

did it take for you to start loosing? I have been on a few days and I do not even feel anything? Just full from eating so much (bacon, sausage, eggs, cheese, etc).

I will stop the cardio and give it 3 more weeks. If I do not see a change, I will stop it and maybe try low carbs, low fat high protein instead...

My weekend was blasted... Drank both Friday and Saturday night at my HS reunion. Ate like sh*t the whole time.

At the very least, I now drink Gin and Soda water.
 
Update - That's it. I have decided to start the CKD again. I had such great results the last time. I have basically 1 month to lose 20 pounds.
 
Yes, 1900 cals on the balanced diet.

200 x 12 = 2400 - 500 = 1900

200 is what I expect my LBM should be at for roughly 15% body fat.

However, I started a CKD today. My cals now range from 2280 to 2400 using Mr. X Spreadsheet at 200 pounds.

Give it a couple weeks, then weigh in.
Try some walnuts for more fat (not to mention variety!).
1oz. of walnuts has 3g carbs, but they're all fiber, so they don't count, but they also have 20g of fat! Pepperoni helps too.
If you don't lose any in 2wks, start adding a little cardio.

I love CKD, even if it's all water, it just makes me feel good and try harder.
 
If you're using the CKD worksheet, you have to use your CURRENT bodyweight. He already takes into account the calorie deficit when it calculates your daily requirements.
 
The difference between 216 and 200 is around 200 cals per day. I am sure I pick that up in miscalculations. I mean, at the very least, it's impossible to get a level tablespoon of ranch dressing. All of mine would be considered heaping.

Plus, over the last 6 months, I have discovered my genetics favor weight gain, I must keep cals a little lower then norm to get good results.

Good point.

I think his worksheet centers very much around maintenence level of cals, and then tapering down from there to keep the metabolism going. If you're constantly below maintenence, wouldn't that have an adverse effect on your metabolism?

But like you said, it's only ~200 cals and I'm not sure how much of a difference that makes.

I know most of it is water, but it is still very positive motivation.

Had a good carb up weekend, did real good yesterday with high fat intake.

I do feel a little run down and sleepy. I took a flexril last night, so I don' t want to blame it on the diet just yet.

Although I have only been on this CKD for a couple of weeks, I am going to start reintroducing carbs back into my diet as it is obvious that my metabolism has halted.

I am gonig to bulk in 3 weeks. I still have quite a bit of fat but I think its my best bet to bulk for a few months get the metabolism screaming again, then try again to lose around 30 pounds.

Was at roughly 2300 cals yesterday. I should be at around 2800 today and 3225 by the end of the week. I'll hold there until Mid-July then I will blast up to 3870 for 2 months. Then back down to Maintainence for 2 months, then back into diet hell for 2 months.

I'll post, but not as often as before.
